Dear Ellen, Shirley and families
Please know that we are thinking of you at this very sad time. What wonderful happy times I spent with both of your parents and they meant the world to me. Much of that time was on the tennis courts at the Maitland where Pic and I would battle it out until the last man standing. Also the doubles games with your Dearest Mother. So many laughs.
Due to Covid, visits were limited but I had many wonderful ones in her their home and later at Goderich Place when she was there.
What a beautiful amazing woman she was and the memories of both your parents are very precious to me. Rest In Peace dear friend.
Sincerely
Donna
